A series of Brønsted-Lewis acidic deep eutectic solvents (DESs) of C 9 H 10 O 2 ·XZnCl 2 (X from 0.5 to 3) were synthesized by simple mixing. The DESs were characterized by infrared spectroscopy, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, and thermogravimetric analysis. The desulfurization of a model oil was investigated using C 9 H 10 O 2 ·XZnCl 2 as the extraction agent and catalyst, and H 2 O 2 as the oxidant. The effects of the molar ratio of phenylpropanoic acid to zinc chloride, reaction temperature, oxygen to sulfur (O/S) molar ratio, and volume ratio of DESs to oil on the desulfurization rate were investigated. The optimal conditions for desulfurization were determined to be a phenylpropanoic acid to zinc chloride ratio of 2:1, a reaction temperature of 50 °C, an O/S ratio of 6, a DESs to oil volume ratio of 0.25:1, and a model oil dosage of 5 mL. Under the optimal conditions, a desulfurization rate of 99.23% in 80 min was achieved. The recyclability of the DESs was also investigated, and the results showed that the desulfurization rate decreased slightly after five runs. These results demonstrate that C 9 H 10 O 2 ·0.5ZnCl 2 DESs exhibit high desulfurization activity and stability in extraction and oxidation desulfurization systems.

The composition, structure, and colloidal stability of hydrocracked products at various hydrogen pressures were analyzed to investigate the role of hydrogen pressure in slurry-phase hydrocracking of Venezuela heavy oil. Experimental data showed that the formation of gas, naphtha, and coke was suppressed by a high hydrogen pressure during the slurry-phase hydrocracking. In addition, the maximum of light oil per coke ratio was observed at 8 MPa of hydrogen. The desulfurization and denitrogenation were promoted by the increase of hydrogen pressure. However, the influence of hydrogen pressure on the desulfurization rate was reduced at higher pressure, while the influence on the denitrogenation rate was still obvious. With the increase of hydrogen pressure, the Conradson carbon residue (CCR) of the vacuum residue (VR) product decreased. Meanwhile, the coking inducing period of the atmospheric residue (AR) product prolonged, which means that the colloidal stability of the AR product was enhanced by a high hydrogen pressure. Structural parameters of asphaltene were studied according to the reference of the Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy method of kerogen structure studying. The cracking and hydrogenation saturation of asphaltene were promoted by a high hydrogen pressure, which lead to the increase of the A factor (infrared absorption intensity ratio of saturated aliphatic carbon and aromatic carbon) and nCH2/nCH3 of asphaltene products as well as the decrease of the Y factor (condensation index of asphaltene) and Z factor (discriminative index of the side-chain fracture situation of asphaltene).

Sulfur in petroleum coke poses significant environmental risks and damages equipment and carbon products, making its removal essential. This study presents a method for the desulfurization and modification of high-sulfur petroleum coke through catalytic roasting with reduced iron powder. The experimental results indicated that with a petroleum coke particle size of 75–58 μm, an iron powder-to-petroleum coke mass ratio of 50 %, and roasting at 1400 °C for 1 h, the desulfurization rate reached 87.93 %, reducing the sulfur content to 0.91 wt%, with a product recovery rate of 80.82 %. A series of characterizations of petroleum coke products before and after desulfurization were conducted, revealing that both the desulfurization efficiency and the graphitization performance of petroleum coke were significantly enhanced by the addition of iron powder. Additionally, density functional theory calculations for the pyrolysis of benzothiophene showed that the energy barrier for the pyrolysis process was reduced in the presence of Fe catalysis, theoretically confirming the desulfurization mechanism. The resulting low-sulfur petroleum coke products can serve as raw materials for graphite preparation.

To compare the desulfurization performance of conventional extraction solvents and novel ionic liquid, desulfurization experiments by extraction were conducted on sulfolane, acetonitrile, N-formyl morpholine, and [BPy]BF4 using model Fluid Catalytic Cracking gasoline (thiophene and n-octane) as feedstock. Results showed that the desulfurization rate of ionic liquid was worse than conventional extraction solvents, but its yield of sweet gasoline was higher, which could reach to 90.36%. Among the four solvents, N-formyl morpholine had the best desulfurization performance, while sulfolane was the most stable extraction agent.

The production of cleaner gasoline requires reducing sulfur and olefin content in fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) gasoline. Herein, Ni/ZSM-5@Ni/ZnO catalysts were synthesized by uniformly coating Ni/ZnO on the surface of Ni/ZSM-5 by electrostatic induced crystallization strategy for FCC gasoline desulfurization-aromatization tandem reactions. The desulfurization activity of Ni/ZSM-5@Ni/ZnO has superior desulfurization activity due to the smaller size of ZnO, higher O vacancy content, and more uniform dispersion of Ni and ZnO relative to the physically mixed Ni/ZSM-5-Ni/ZnO. In addition, coating Ni/ZnO on the surface of Ni/ZSM-5 can reduce the Brønsted acid content of Ni/ZSM-5, increase the Lewis/Brønsted acid value of the catalyst, which inhibits the excessive cracking of FCC gasoline, and improves the liquid yield and aromatics selectivity. After 8 h of reaction, the desulfurization rate, aromatics generation rate and olefin conversion rate of Ni/ZSM-5@Ni/ZnO were 85.58 %, 25.22 % and 49.08 % respectively, which were higher than those of physically mixed Ni/ZSM-5-Ni/ZnO catalysts by 25.34 %, 15.95, and 12.98 %, respectively. Meanwhile, the unique structure of Ni/ZSM-5@Ni/ZnO reduces carbon deposition and delays catalyst deactivation. Density functional theory calculations show that Ni/ZSM-5@Ni/ZnO was more favorable for thiophene desulfurization and has a better ability to adsorb and activate H 2 . This study provides a new idea for the development of catalysts for clean gasoline production.

Oxidative desulfurization of model oil and heavy fuel oil (HFO) was investigated under mild conditions using H 2 O 2 as an oxidant and acetonitrile as an extractant. The influence factors in the oxidation and extraction processes were evaluated and optimized. The molecular characteristics of the raw feedstock and the desulfurized oils, and the corresponding extraction phases were systematically analyzed by APPI FT-ICR MS, 1 H NMR, etc. The results showed that the desulfurization rate of dibenzothiophene reached 97.7% after 10 min reaction, while the sulfur removal efficiency of HFO was 30.7% under optimized conditions. The structures of sulfur compounds were described in heteroatom type, carbon number distribution vs unsaturation degree. The detected main sulfur-containing compounds are S 1 , S 2 , S 3 , NS, OS, O 2 S, O 2 S 2 , and O 4 S 2 . Based on the APPI FT-ICR MS results, it can be found that almost all the S 1 species have been transformed into sulfone after the oxidation process. Furthermore, the sulfone of O 2 S 1 and O 4 S 2 species in extraction phases were in double bond equivalent (DBE) range from 9 to 25 and carbon number with ≤ 40. 1 H NMR results showed that the α to aromatic CH 3 combined naphthenic CH-CH 2 group accounted for 73.2% in the extraction phase.

Lewis acidic ionic liquid-loaded Fe3O4@SiO2 magnetic catalytic microspheres were prepared. When coupled with persulfate, the microspheres catalytically oxidized and removed dibenzothiophene (DBT) from octane. The microspheres used for catalytic desulfurization were characterized and analyzed by SEM, TEM, FT-IR, VSM, and TG-DTA. The results indicated that the prepared catalytic desulfurization microspheres had a uniform particle size distribution, an overall diameter of 200 nm, and a core diameter of Fe3O4 of about 180 nm. The saturation magnetization of the catalytic desulfurization microspheres was 39.8 emug−1, which allowed them to be rapidly magnetically separated. The optimal experimental conditions were 1.5 g catalyst, 1.2 g PMS (20%) oxidant, 30 °C, an initial sulfur content of 500 ppm, 6.0 g octane, and 3.0 g acetonitrile. Under these conditions, the desulfurization rate reached 98.5% after 25 min, which decreased by about 10% after five recycles. GC-MS analysis indicated the oxidation product was dibenzothiophene sulfone (DBTO2). In the desulfurization mechanism, DBT was first extracted by acetonitrile. Then, in the acetonitrile phase, Co2+ catalyzed hydrogen persulfate to form active oxygen atoms that oxidized DBT and eventually formed DBTO2.
